Abstract:
The states of the Eastern European region have great geopolitical, geo-strategic and geo-economic
interest to the entire international community. The political and economic transformations in the Eastern European
countries had systemic character. The reforms in the sphere of economy, politics and even ideology were
interdependent. Obvious presence and great volume of the external factor of influence on countries of Eastern
Europe definitely determines the specificity of their development; it’s impossible to ignore this external influence
upon investigation of political regime transformation mode in these countries. Moreover, the external factor of
influence is the principal factor in the process of formation and in the process of transformation of political regimes
and entire political systems in countries of Eastern Europe.
